I really love the Barnes bullets, but I now realize I'll have to seat them very far back, even moreso than Barnes recommends, in order to have my cartriges fit the magazine. So I suspect this will be the same deal with poly-tipped bullets. Anyone else have this problem?

Done with barrel break-in, and ready to start reloading my fired brass. I want to use 180 gr barnes tsx, or MRX, if they fit. Power suggestions/charges?

Just a thought, as I'm fairly new to reloading (loaded and fired, maybe 500 rounds total now, with mixed results). When seating bullets, I've noticed many seat at a slightly different COAL than one another. In the past I have adjusted the die for each and every cartrige, to make the COAL as...

Do you all crimp your hunting loads? I've loaded some nice accurate stuff, put one-at-a-time in the chamber at the range, but I'm wondering if I aught to crimp for hunting for recoil in the magazine. Also, I try to load only for Barnes. Should these be crimped if not seated on a crimp ring?

Can\'t get the copper fouling out Breaking in my RUM, and can't get the stubborn copper out. What's the best way? I'm using Hopps Bench Rest 9, which says you can soak the barrel overnight, which I did, and still not out.

Does anyone know if these are available?

Anyone know about the appearance of NEW IN BOX savage rifles? I have two. The one from Bi-Mart is black inside the barrel around the rifling. The one I recently got, and haven't shot yet, has some of that black sort of "rubbed off" in appearance. I cleaned it, and one of the wipes came out...

This is over my head. I'm choosing a scope, too, for a 300 RUM, and I wonder, what's the difference between an AO, and "Side Focus Paralax Adjustment???????"

oKAY. wHAT IS BULLET RUNOUT, AND WHAT IS NECK TURNING? Question from an amature reloader.

Hey, that's not the answer I was looking for! But I'm glad I got it before forking out the extra $ for the other gun!!! Thanks, guys.

I'm a beginner at this concept, so I may not have the proper terminology. Let's say I have two Savage rifles. One is a 300 RUM with synthetic stock. One is a 300 WIN with laminate stock and heavy fluted 26" barrel. Is it possible to switch things up so the laminate and heavy barrel is now a...

Here's a beginner's question. I'd like to have a nice stock for my "ugly" savage rifle. Are all the bolt holes in a standard location for all stocks? Or do I have to get one specifically set up for Savage rifles? I want the barrel to remain free floating, but want a solid, heavy stock. It...

Need a 300 RUM Savage, stainless New In Box

I have full clearance from the ultimate authority to get one. I'm wondering just which manufacturers make the 300 RUM? Any one know? I have found Remington and Savage. I'm not sure if Savage makes on in 2006, but I like the Savage for its accuracy. I'd get it, but put some weightin the...
